I''m trying to figure out the rails why to break a single database field out into multiple fields on a form, very similar to how rails does with dates. How can I create my own object that mirrors the date objects behaviur in how it accepts the multiparameter assignment from the form. Example: A phone number field (to force formating on the user) could be broken into 3 form fields, formated server side, and written to the database in a single field. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
